Kalium release notes

Kalium is constantly being updated with new features, bug fixes, and adjustments. We recommend you to read the changelog for every update release. Also please consider deactivating caching plugins temporarily to avoid the caching of old markup when you update the theme.

NOTE:
— Laborator recommends to not update WooCommerce newer than 3.4.4 before we release a new theme update that fully supports the latest version of the plugin.
